multiplicative abelian linearly ordered group on $Bbb R-{0}$

It seems that $Bbb Rsetminus{0}$ does not create an alo-group (abelian linearly ordered group) with the "normal" order on $Bbb R$.
Is it possible to define any other order (including a trivial order) so we can have alo-group on $Bbb R-{0}$?

  • There is a sentence in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linearly_ordered_group which says "F. W. Levi showed that an abelian group admits a linear order if and only if it is torsion free". Does this answer your question?

  • this is an excellent hint! Thank you. Unfortunately, this is the answer. However, it looks like my question is not as trivial as it looks like. On the other hand, real numbers w/o 0 create a multiplicative torsion free abelian group. So, by F.W. Levi, there must be a linear order hence it is also abelian linearly ordered group! I wonder if anyone of you, wise people, can confirm it. I specialize in computers and feel like an intruder here :)

  • the hint has been excellent but it does not solve the problem. The problem is with the condition: if x (?) y than zx (?) zy where x, y, z are group elements and (?) is the linear order. For the "normal" order "<" for real numbers and z=-1, < changes to > hence negative numbers create a problem for the regular "order". I wonder if = can be used as (?) in some deviated way. How about neq ? It looks like a partial order to me.

  • The group $mathbb{R} - {0}$ with multiplication has torsion, since the element $-1$ squares to $1$.
